About This Item
Reviews
Sheila is very open with her life in this book. She masterfully draws parallels between the lives of biblical characters and her life illustrating that we can do the same and hear a fresh word from God in the process. Her biblical illustrations included stories from the lives of Gideon, Abraham, Samson, Anna, Paul, and others. In each chapter of her book, Sheila writes more of her story and then parallels it to the story of a biblical character and then explains what she learned from that character while at the same time asking the reader a few thought provoking questions to help them glean something from the story as well. At the end of each chapter, she writes a sentence or two to transition into the next chapter. Sheila covers subjects such us �The Beauty of Waiting and Being Present,� in chapter four, �The Beauty of Quiet Trust,� in chapter seven and �The Beauty of Forgiving� in chapter nine. I am torn on how I feel about this book. On the one hand, it has some very good lessons that are worth learning if you want to have a deeper relationship with God. I loved reading her book in one hand while I had my bible in my other hand so that I could freshen my memory of the bible story she was talking about. On the other hand, I felt that by the time I was in the middle of the book the layout of the book was very predictable, which kind of made it boring. I think this book would be good if it was read as a group because the meetings would stay predictable and flow easily throughout each chapter and I wonder if that was her intention because at the end of the book is a bible study. I don�t think it works well as a book read individually.Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from Thomas Nelson Publishers as part of their BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program.
